Description

Delight in these delicious Cracker Toffee Truffles, featuring layers of buttery caramel and crispy club crackers, coated in rich dark chocolate. This no-bake treat combines crunchy textures with smooth, sweet flavors, perfect for parties or a special homemade dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Caramel Mixture

  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

Layers

  • 70 – 80 club crackers

Chocolate Coating

  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips or wafers

Instructions

  1. Prepare caramel mixture: In a heavy-bottom saucepan, combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, evaporated milk, and brown sugar. Stir the ingredients together to mix thoroughly.
  2. Boil caramel: Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Allow it to boil for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
  3. Layer first crackers: While the caramel mixture boils, line a 9×13 inch pan with one layer of club crackers, placing them salt side up evenly across the pan.
  4. Count crackers: Count how many crackers you have used to estimate the quantity for two more layers of equal size.
  5. Pour first half caramel: After boiling, immediately pour half of the hot caramel mixture evenly over the first layer of crackers, spreading it gently to cover all pieces.
  6. Add second cracker layer: Place a second layer of club crackers on top of the caramel layer, lining them up as neatly as the first layer.
  7. Pour second half caramel: Pour the remaining caramel mixture evenly over the second cracker layer and spread it out consistently.
  8. Add final cracker layer: Place the last layer of club crackers on top of the second caramel layer to finish the layering.
  9. Chill layers: Refrigerate the layered cracker and caramel assembly until fully set, typically about 1-2 hours.
  10. Crush layers: Once set, break the layered cracker slab into smaller pieces and crush them in a food processor until finely ground but still slightly chunky.
  11. Form truffle balls: Scoop out the crushed mixture and shape into small truffle balls approximately 3/4 inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and chill for at least 15 minutes to firm up.
  12. Melt chocolate: While truffles chill, melt the dark chocolate chips or wafers using a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth.
  13. Coat truffles: Remove chilled truffles from the fridge and dip each one individually into the melted chocolate until fully coated. Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  14. Set chocolate coating: Refrigerate the chocolate-coated truffles until the chocolate firms up, about 15 minutes.
  15. Serve and enjoy: Once set, serve these rich and crunchy Cracker Toffee Truffles as a sweet treat or dessert delight.

Notes

  • Be careful when boiling the caramel mixture to prevent burning.
  • Arrange club crackers evenly for best structural layering.
  • Chilling times may vary depending on your fridge; ensure truffles are firm before dipping.
  • Store leftover truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Use high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor coating.
